Observation details
7+ birds were seen on the afternoon of April 12. Unfortunately with the whole group they were easily spooked and photos were poor. On April 14 I returned with a smaller group to try again and had much better luck. These birds look like rather drab and tall Snowy Plovers. Their thin legs were often concentrated in grass but were eventually seen well. There were less than 200 pairs left in the world at this time.
